Tomatoes are about 3 carbs each, raw. That's according to my book anyway. So it all depends on how many carbs you allow yourself per day as to how many of them you should eat...
I too have heard that tomatoes are an extremely good food and I love them so I tend to include 1 per day with my salad.
I read some of your posts...I hope you don't mind me saying but I really think you should do some more research into this WOE.
Try to stop thinking low-fat and start thinking low-carb, very very hard I know as we have been conditioned to low-fat for years now. Think about each food you eat and how much sugar is in it, read those labels.
Have a look at the kitchen section on here, it's great for new recipes and ideas...also read some journals as most people list their daily menus, use it as a tool for guidance on what/what not to eat. I've found nosing around in other folks journals really helpful and I know they don't mind !!
Good luck
Ali
